states the president carried four years ago, states governor romney very much needs to win this time. let's go to the electoral map to show you just why. 237 electoral votes, strong or leaning the president's way. 191 for governor romney, strong or leaning. you see these are the toss-up states, the golden states. forget the rest of them. if the president can get that lead and carry florida, the race is to 270 wolf. that would be, in two words, game over. >> gloria, if you take a look at the strength that the president has in these states, you see something fascinating. >> it is. i call it the empathy question. if you look at this question that was asked of the new "washington post" poll, which candidate is seen as advancing the interests of the middle class? you see the president up by 25 points on that question in florida, but 19 points in ohio. and that is, of course, what people vote on, because everybody says they're middle class. so this is essentially asking, who's the fellow who cares more about my interests? and with obama up by those considerable double digits, it's very, ver

sticking there in michigan in particular, romney -- it's romney's birth state, the birth state of the auto industry. and although now the governor is saying that it's essentially what he was calling for, president obama rescued the bailout -- it was his bailout of the auto industry that went over so well there. so how does that fare for the governor? >> well, i think the governor's had trouble answering that criticism that he would have thrown michigan under the bus. he said let the auto industry go bankrupt four years ago in an editorial in "the new york times," and president obama came in with a rescue package, and now the auto industry is up and running. and so the democrats and president obama have been beating romney about the ears with that accusation. but i think romney has a lot of pride in the fact that he was born and brought up in michigan, and he's trying to give president obama the impression that he's going to have to fight to win michigan as john kerry had to fight to win it back in 2004 by only three-and-a-half points. and john kerry was actually campaigning in michiga

governor romney's was a plan that was applied to one state. it was applied to a unique health care population in that state, which was about 7 million people. not like what we've seen with president obama, where he essentially took one-sixth of the american economy. reorganized it, applied that federal standard, and said, let's see if this works. i think the american people have judged that plan very harshly, because it wasn't bipartisan, it hasn't brought down costs. it hasn't been something that's helped a lot of health care consumers. it's putting government between many patients and their doctors, so there are very big differences there. tomorrow night, with the case on how to go forward with health care, what to really do to bring down those costs, i think that's going to be discussed and we look forward to that debate. i know governor romney does. >> on the issue of illegal immigration, kevin, the governor says he won't try to change what the president did by executive order, recently, allow children of illegal immigrants who were brough
